Awesome! I hope "K9 Tales" and "the Brain of Morbius" are released here in the States soon...dvds mean more room on my Doctor Who shelf! ;)
I'm suprised you guys haven't mentioned the new regulars - The Chandra family - who were announced in Thursdays DWM magazine yet!
Oh and this, which I'm sure you know about already. But just in case someone who hasn't is reading these comments. SJA BOXSET! I'm just a bit worried that it might not have any extras.
I, unfortunately don't have a subscription to DWM, so I haven't seen the latest issue yet (it takes awhile to hit the newstands here in the States). Thanks for the heads-up, though! :)
